Reverse description Three figures in high relief occupy the central field: Saints Paul (left) and Peter (right) stand flanking a smaller kneeling figure, likely representing the Pope or a suppliant, at centre. Saint Paul holds a sword and book, Saint Peter holds the keys of heaven and a book, both draped in flowing robes rendered with naturalistic detail consistent with Renaissance artistic conventions. A stylised cross or ecclesiastical symbol appears in the lower exergue. The two-word legend ALMA ROMA is divided by the figures, with ALMA at the left and ROMA at the right, within a beaded border.
